Re: Petrolheads, what's your ideal 30 lakh rupee Garage?

Here's what my garage will look like if i have 30 lacs to spare:

1. Sell off my Santro and get XUV 500 top end model (~14.8 lacs - 80K (santro) = 14 lacs for the long drives and bad roads
2. i10 Kappa= Retain for city and congested drives
3. Octavia vRS= Retain for weekend fun and spirited drives
4. Chevy Cruze= Retain for daily drives
5. Pre Worshiped Skoda Superb 1.8 DSG with the rest of 16 lacs for luxury and comfort

If i had 30 lacs more to spare i would have invested in pre worshiped BMW 530D

Re: Petrolheads, what's your ideal 30 lakh rupee Garage?

I would go for option C (List mentioned below is for pre-worshipped cars n bikes)

1) Skoda RS- 4.5 L + Performance & Few cosmetic mods 2.5 L= 7 L

2) Gypsy king- 2.5 L + Performance & Few cosmetic mods 2.5 L= 5 L

3) RD 350 HT 80k+ Performance drag spec mods 1.2 L = 2 L
(Note: I already own a 84' RD HT but would like to keep it stock)

4) Endavour- 7L + Performance & Few cosmetic mods 3L= 10 L

5) Harley Davidson 883 - 6L (Yes there's one goin for sale in bangalore with just 7.5k on the odo.)

I guess that's money well spent

Re: Petrolheads, what's your ideal 30 lakh rupee Garage?

GTO most of the polls you start, and you choose an option which happens to be a common sense / practical.

Here is how I would like to spend :

1. Tata Safari, around 9 Lacs (I already have)
2. Mahindra Thar with some modification, another 8 lacs
3. A premium hatch-back Diesel I-20 / Punto 90bhp, 7 Lacs
4. Triumph Bonneville, 5.5 Lacs
5. Royal Enfield 500cc, 1.5 Lacs (I already have)

Re: Petrolheads, what's your ideal 30 lakh rupee Garage?

Would pick up

1. A pre-owned W124 E-250, customize same a little (would be my daily car) - Budget 5 lacs
2. A pre-owned Pajero, 2008 or 09 (for those off road weekend trips) - 15 lacs
3. A New Honda Brio-S (parking in town is one heck of a problem) - 5 lacs
4. Would buy 4-5 Royal Enfileds from Army Auction and completely restore it to original - 5 lacs.

As a diesel head I think the Current Yeti will remain. The second car would be an A Star Automatic. The other second car could be Reva.
